Puppy-Proofing Your Home



Precautions should be taken before bringing in your new puppy at home. These may extend from the home to the yard outside. Beware of poisonous plants (both indoor and outdoor), childproofing specific areas, choking hazards, and clearing off counters and tables of things you don’t want your puppy to have access to.

New puppies are very curious creatures. They love putting objects in their mouths, which means that everything is a potential choking hazard. Small objects like caps, coins, and a variety of office or school supplies are hazards for choking. It could escalate into another problem if these small objects won’t be spat out and may reach the intestines, causing blockage or worse.

Remember to put away any toxic objects that your puppy can have access to. Cleaning materials and harmful chemicals should be locked inside a cabinet where your puppy will not reach them. As soon as you’re finished cleaning, packing them away is a must. Puppies are like new toddlers. They are very sneaky, so you have to think ahead to avoid any untoward accidents from happening.

Take your pet to your professional veterinarians Louisville KY for regular health and dental checks.
